What will you do if your fiancé betrays you, with someone you are completely unexpected and, in fact, really love about? I ran away, to a club owned by a handsome billionaire who was heartbroken and ended up in his bed. Not stopping there, I continued my escape all the way to Italy, with the fetus in my stomach. I thought, after all that chaos, I and I had finally found a new, peaceful life in a place that no one would ever know about. However, the billionaire found me and was determined to take me back, especially after he found out that there were a pair of twins with me. The problem was, I was determined never to come back, and that man also had a fiancee. What should I do?
View MoreSt. Benedict's Mental Hospital is a large two-story building located in the Agoura Hills area.The building is in the middle of a very large field, which has been transformed into a beautiful and comfortable like city park.I don't really know the history of St. Benedict's, but as far as I can remember, the mental hospital has received awards several times as the best mental health facility in the world."Ten years ago, this hospital was in financial trouble and almost closed," David said when we arrived. "However, my grandfather decided to invest secretly to save this hospital and handed over its management to my mother and her two cousins from my grandmother's side. Since then, this hospital has been operating well until now.""Hm? Why did your grandfather hand over its management to your mother and not your father?" I asked confusedly."That matter is still a mystery to all of us. Even my father was angry and questioned it before my grandfather died, but my grandfather did not gi
They entered a hotel in the suburbs. I got goosebumps and unconsciously squeezed David's hand that was holding mine, while his other hand was holding his phone to record.From getting out of the car to entering the elevator after registering at the reception, they didn't distance themselves at all.Jared's hand was always on the other man's waist. Sometimes the man leaned his head on Jared's shoulder, sniffed his neck, or kissed his cheek affectionately. Likewise, Jared would kiss the side of the man's head, squeeze his butt, or tidy up his hair."They're a couple," I murmured. "Those are things we often do together, right, honey? Because we're a couple, so we show it as a form of expression of affection."David stopped the recording after Jared and the man entered the elevator. He led me out of the hotel lobby and back to the car."So, Jared has another boyfriend besides my father," I said while looking at David with a raised eyebrow. "Love triangle?""Hm. That's for sure," David sai
I walked around the building where I would be working with a sense of satisfaction. Just like what Lea said before I left, that all the facilities were available in this three-story building, even the cafeteria area.However, it turned out that I really had to organize everything from scratch. Starting from staff placement to job description arrangements. This was really a challenge for me.Just imagine, I am a scriptwriter, usually only working on scripts according to client requests, starting from concept scripts for television shows, soap operas, advertisements, or sometimes short films. I do my work simply with a laptop, mostly I do it at home, although sometimes I also come to the office to do some training for new writers, but not like this.This makes me have to deal with many people, staff and writers for sure. I also have to organize them so that office activities can run.Luckily Damian is with me. Even though his real function is a lawyer, for now, he also understands that
"No, no, just call me Petra. I feel awkward, besides I'm not a teacher anymore. No need to be formal."I smiled at the twins' former teacher. The woman in front of me was now blushing and she looked awkward."You guys might be sisters-in-law soon," Lucas said with a laugh. He grabbed Petra's hand and squeezed it gently.Everyone in the room laughed and clapped. Abigail called the waiter and asked them to serve dessert immediately. A cheerful atmosphere filled the lunch room.I looked at everyone present at the dining table. Me, David, the twins, Lucas, Petra and Damian. Erika and Dylan had returned to Italy because Jake didn't like being separated from his wife and children for too long."Mom, do you think it's safe to bring Loreine and the twins to my house?" David asked Abigail while enjoying coffee after lunch.Now everyone was gathered near the swimming pool, enjoying coffee and small cakes, and watching Petra and the twins swim.Abigail's brow furrowed, then she shook her head. "
I don't remember much about it romantically. We may have only been three years apart in age, but our relationship felt like it was ten or even fifteen years apart.We rarely talked, in fact we rarely saw each other, even though we lived in the same house.Lucas, standing in front of me, stiff and clearly shocked. I, standing in front of Lucas, confused and worried.Ms. Petra touched Lucas' arm carefully, as if she was worried about startling the stunned man."Honey, do you... Know Ms. Lauren?" Ms. Petra asked softly.Lucas turned to her slowly. "Ms. Lauren?""Hm," Ms. Petra nodded. "Didn't I say I would take you to meet Ms. Lauren Lou? She helped me out on my way here because Damian still had some things to take care of in Italy. Damian also happens to be Ms. Lauren's work partner and the twins, are her children, who are also my students, and Mr. David, is Ms. Lauren's husband."We locked eyes again and my hands were about to reach out, but Lucas was faster, scooping me into his arms.
"So that's it," I said, after hearing everything Liam and Jared said, which I heard from the recording David took after meeting Liam at the Destiny club."How ridiculous," I said again, feeling sad. "I always felt proud to be born as a Hart. We were very rich and well-known, I had everything that other girls my age dreamed of, easily. I loved by everyone, spoiled, and always obeyed. However, as I grew up, I began to realize that there were many things that were actually inappropriate that my family did."I took David's hand and held it tightly. He smiled and patted the back of my hand gently then kissed the palm of my hand gently."I started to compare. Hart, Reiner, and Arshen, because it just so happened that these were the only three families I knew the most closely. There was a lot of goodness in Hart and Reiner, but only in Arshen I saw hard work and honesty. Regardless of whatever your father did to your mother, the men in the Arshen family were honest and hard workers," I said
David PoVLiam chose my club, Destiny. Jack, the bartender, pointed to the booth at the very back, which is where I usually sit when I invite my friends over for drinks.I haven't been to this club for almost two months, after I found Loreine and left for Italy.Jack is the general manager now, but he still serves as the bartender because everyone who frequents the club loves his drinks and always looks for him when they come over. So, I doubled his salary and he's happy to do his job."It's been a long time since I've seen Mr. Liam come by," Jack said as he handed me a bottle of champagne that I had ordered earlier. "He's been in a few times and asked about you, talking about how hard you are to get a hold of."I laughed. "I've been with him my whole life, he's like my conjoined twin."Jack laughed out loud at my joke. I walked over to the booth and saw Liam sitting with a scantily clad woman who was almost sitting on his lap.My eyebrows furrowed spontaneously."My Davey!" Liam sai
"Grandpa sent me to pick her up."My eyebrows rose. David smiled and put his hand to my lips. "Calm down," he said quietly. He stroked my lips with his thumb."Why?" David asked. "Your grandfather was worried that she would run away again, now that he knew you guys had tracked her down? Don't you feel that it's too late? After six years, why are you only looking for him now and forcing him to come home? That's strange!""We are scared she will run away, again, yes that's one thing, but the most important thing is, he's curious about the two kids. He's heard rumors that the kids look like one of our relatives," Liam replied. "That's sound ridiculous."For some reason, I heard a mocking tone in Liam's voice and it made me unhappy.David took my hand and squeezed it gently."Liam, I don't understand how Grandpa Jameson managed to track Loreine down. Did he hire a detective to look for her? Since when?"I heard Liam take a few deep breaths, as if he was trying to take in as much air as po
"Wow!""Wow!"Shane and Shery, looked around, with awe and awe. Their eyes rolled and sparkled, watching the people walking back and forth in the bustling airport.David reached for my hand and held it tightly. "Come on, baby, my men are waiting at the back door. We're not going out the regular door."Just as David, me, the twins, and Ms. Petra exited the designated door, a burly man, wearing sunglasses and a hat, approached us.He bowed to David and touched his hat. Ms. Petra looked at him, then smiled broadly."Ren!" She called.She turned to me. "Ms. Lauren, this is Ren, my maternal cousin who Damian asked to pick me up. I'll be staying at his house until Damian gets here."The man hugged Ms. Petra and reached out to me and David to introduce himself.Ms. Petra hugged the twin, hugged me, and shook David's hand, thanking him and promising to call me.After Ms. Petra left with her cousin who picked up her, David sent a text message and in less than ten minutes, a Rubicon approached
I was sitting on the toilet lid, in the far end cubicle of one of the busy Los Angeles airport toilets, with a one-way ticket to Italy and a test pack that showed two very bright red lines."D*mn," I moaned weakly.I've done nothing since I walked into this cubicle half an hour ago, other than cry and cry, as if my eyes were a leaking dam. So that no one would hear my crying, I stuffed the handkerchief into my mouth and bit it.I'm trying to strengthen myself to continue, after what I've experienced these last two tumultuous months.=Flashback, five weeks ago="Mom, have you seen Jared?""I saw him leaving with your father earlier," answered my mother, waving her hand outside. "I think your father felt the need to give advice to his future son-in-law before the event started. You know how possessive he is of you, right?"I just laughed and continued walking towards the park. I feel happiness and enthusiasm make my steps light.In an hour, my engagement ceremony with Jared will begi...
